How could something mounted two feet away outside be bounced to bits? I've had two similar platforms and had no problems.
Well, I think I heard some good advice. Particularly the part about my pull out storage being blocked by the potential platform hitch. I found a good reason to buy a new portable smoker that fits easily in the bed of the truck. I do wish I could bring along my Weber but I’d hate to damage it or cause issues with my new RV. Thanks for the input!
